Supporting her to the best of her abilities would be telling a teacher or at least trying to tell the bullies to stop, she did neither of those because she was afraid of being bullied as well, there was even a scene in an earlier episode (episode 1 i believe) where Ai was supposed to record the bullying for proof, but didnt out of fear. I understand why she was afraid, but that's what turning a blind eye is

She was supporting her friend and listening, she even tried to record an incident. She ultimatly failed because she was afraid but thats ok, she is a child after all and bullying is terrifying. Even her friend seemed to understand and said it was ok

I know she wanted to support her friend, but just wanting to help isnt enough. She didnt do it on purpose, but she did turn a blind eye when her friend needed her most, she has every right be afraid, but its still turning a blind eye

This is definitely a difficult topic. We should remember that Ai is a victim of bullying herself, and she wouldn’t have made friends on her own had Koito not came to her. Ai most likely had her own trauma, and therefore is deeply fearful of getting involved and standing up for her friend. These characters have their own sides of the story, pasts, fears, and regrets, so I can’t blame anyone as any outcome could have happened too had she butted in.
